Thank you.

Do you come to the school to teach the lessons?

No, our teachers are based in offices in Melton.

What equipment will we need?

Each child will need a PC with Internet access, and a headset with an integral microphone.

What courses do you teach?

We teach English and maths, ranging from the gifted and talented through to pupils with Special Educational Needs.

When are lessons?

Lessons are timetabled to fit in with the school day: 9.00am, 11.00am, 1.15pm or 2.30pm.

Can we arrange lessons out of schools hours?

Lessons can be accommodated before and after school, depending on teacher availability.

What happens if a child misses a lesson?

We will do our best to offer an alternative time, if notice is given.

What is a VLE?

Most of our courses are supported by a VLE (virtual learning environment), which the children can access at anytime, even at home!

This includes resources for each lesson, website links and any activities the children have worked on.

Do the children have to do homework?

No. Homework will not normally be set, however children are encouraged to access the VLE after lessons to accelerate their learning.
